The Best Way to Learn

learn maths

Numbers are very difficult to understand in the abstract.

Our approach uses number rods to give physical meaning to the concepts of counting and amounts.

Not only that, there are dozens of number based activities, presented in innovative ways to engage your child.

Space to learn

Montessori spaces are specially designed give your child the space to concentrate on the tasks they love.

Free from distraction they learn to focus, a superpower for all ages.

real activities

Your child will learn to become a helpful member of the family, willingly helping out on cleaning day. Montessori puts emphasis on real life activities and children absolutely love them!

Our Staff Love their Work

All Bright Start staff are especially selected and trained to work here. We are a quality first nursery, as that’s what’s best for your child. Our teacher to child ratio is the highest in Gibraltar.

We had 4 nurseries lined up to visit in Gib, after seeing Bright Start (the first one) we cancelled the other visits. We knew this was the right place for Marcus to grow up as an independent, free thinking boy with all the life skills he needs to thrive.

Hello!
My name is Nicole, and I am the proud founder of Bright Start Montessori in Gibraltar. We opened our doors in January 2017 with just one child enrolled and no advertising. Since then, the nursery has flourished, growing entirely through the power of word-of-mouth recommendations. As the Director, I am responsible for overseeing daily operations, supporting our dedicated staff, and ensuring that we provide a nurturing, enriching environment where children can thrive.

What I love about my job:
One of my favorite parts of my role is meeting the new families who join us and spending time with the children. It’s truly a privilege to be a part of their educational journeys and watch them grow and learn.

What I enjoy in my free time:
In my downtime, I cherish moments with family and friends. Although I’m very work-focused, I also dedicate time to brainstorming new ideas and initiatives to ensure we continually meet the needs of our children and community.

A little about my pet:
I have a beautiful flame-tip Siamese cat named Bella Snow. She is a beloved member of my family and brings so much joy to my life.

Projects I’ve initiated:
One of my proudest initiatives is the “Christmas Tree Angels” project. For more details, please visit the dedicated page to learn how this project has made a meaningful impact.
